Arsenal legend Thierry Henry has reacted to Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City reaching the Champions League final on Wednesday night after they outclassed Real Madrid 5-1 on aggregate.
The former striker stated that, whilst he is an ‘Arsenal fan’ at heart, if you don’t appreciate this Manchester City, then ‘you have a problem in your head’, as he told CBS Sports on Paramount+ (17/05/23 at 10:10 pm).
Pep Guardiola’s men, not only booked their Istanbul ticket for the Champions League final against Inter Milan, but they did it in a dominating fashion by beating Carlo Ancelotti’s men 4-0 in the second leg.

Nonetheless, Arsenal icon Henry had a simple message to all after Manchester City’s win last night.
“Everyone knows I am an Arsenal fan,” said Henry. “But, if you don’t like this Man City side, then you surely have a problem in your head.”
